Our mission to negotiate the release of @UN staff detainees and to assess the health and humanitarian situation in #Yemen concluded today. We continue to call for the detainees' immediate release.

I regret the recent escalation between Yemen and Israel, and remain deeply concerned about the risk of further escalation in the region.
Airstrikes today on Sana’a International Airport, the Red Sea ports and power stations in Yemen are especially alarming. The airstrikes…
— António Guterres (@antonioguterres) The Guardian:
The United Nations chief has denounced the “escalation” in hostilities between Yemen’s Houthi rebels and Israel, calling IDF strikes on targets including at the airport in Sana’a “especially alarming” after it came under attack while the head of the World Health Organization was about to board a plane.
Israel struck multiple targets linked to the Iran-aligned Houthi movement in Yemen on Thursday, including the international airport in the capital, Sana’a. Houthi media said at least six people were killed.
A spokesperson for UN secretary general, António Guterres, said in a statement: “The secretary general condemns the escalation between Yemen and Israel. Israeli airstrikes today on Sana’a international airport, the Red Sea ports and power stations in Yemen are especially alarming …
“Today’s airstrikes follow around a year of escalatory actions by the Houthis in the Red Sea and the region that threaten civilians, regional stability and freedom of maritime navigation.”
The head of the World Health Organization (WHO), Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, said in a social media post on Thursday that he was about to board a plane at the airport when it came under aerial attack. A crew member on the plane was injured, he said, and at least two people were reported killed at the airport.
“The air traffic control tower, the departure lounge – just a few meters from where we were – and the runway were damaged. We will need to wait for the damage to the airport to be repaired before we can leave. My UN and @WHO colleagues and I are safe. Our heartfelt condolences to the families whose loved ones lost their lives in the attack.”
Tedros said he had been in Yemen to negotiate the release of UN staff detained by the Houthis and assess the humanitarian situation.
The Israeli military did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Agence France-Presse on whether they were aware of Tedros’ presence at the time.
This whole thing has gone full slapstick, no?

TS;DR. WTF no words from faglin? As bad as SBPDL. OP is a faggot
the one time these murderous bastards, could have killed someone deserving of death and they fail miserably. too bad the houthis didn’t detain tedros, until the israeli’s stop their attempted genocide in palestine.
Israelis are not going to kill one of their useful puppets. He did as they ordered him to do. Pfizer owes him big time.
I am 120% behind the Yemeni Armed Forces and 200% for the total destruction of the fake ‘state’ of “israel”,
BUT,
it is really a pity that they didn’t kill the son of a whore at the head of the World DEATH Organization, Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, one of the scumbag behind the covid genocide…
Maybe next time the bastard won’t have so much chance.
I wouldn’t have missed him.
What are you babbling about?
Huh?????
Unless that puppet did something that didn’t pleased his masters.
Did you know that Dr Tedros is not only the top WHO Covid virus hoaxter but also a flaming cross dresser:
You don’t get to positions of power and influence in the Jewish “liberal world order” unless you’re eminently corruptible or compromised.
I saw a brief, apparently surreptitiously recorded, video of a man who looked like Tedros at a party in drag. Are any of these leaders not perverts?
NO.
ALL of them are perverts, because it is a REQUIRED status before being allowed to higher visibility.
Perverts are ALL Borderline Personality Disordered individuals.

Isn’t that Neil deGrasse Tyson?
